    Updating links to new set of Workbooks each month

    We get 50+ workbooks in each month with the reporting for those entities.
    We have a consolidation workbook that is linked to each of the 50 submissions.
    The filename for the each submission is XXX-MM-Reporting where XXX is the org ref, MM is the current month.
    At the moment the team manual updates the links in the consolidation workbook to the following month.
    I think the solution lies in the INDIRECT formula but I always get lost with it.
    Help please.

    I think the solution lies in the INDIRECT formula but I always get lost with it.
    This only works on open workbooks, so if that is an option, great. Otherwise, take a look at using the MoreFunc add-in for that, it allows INDIRECT to be used on closed workbooks

    Find it here...

    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
